The KISS Network in 2015–2016: Catalogs and Comparison of Processing Results with Operational Estimates from Permanent Network.

Abstract—As part of the international collaboration of several research groups from Russia, France, and Germany, 77 temporary seismic stations were installed in the summer of 2015 for one-year period to conduct a detailed study of the deep structure of the Earth's crust and upper mantle in the region of the Klyuchevskoi Volcano Group (KVG), Kamchatka Peninsula. One of the results of the KISS experiment (Klyuchevskoi Investigation –Seismic Structure of an extraordinary volcanic system) was the final catalog based on the joint data from the temporary stations and the permanent network of the Kamchatka Branch of the Geophysical Survey of the Russian Academy of Sciences (KB GS RAS). The catalog comprises 2136 events, including 560 for which the permanent network catalog lacked sufficient data for correct processing. The catalog in.xlsx format and the station bulletin in.isf format are presented in the supplementary material to the paper. A comparative analysis is performed of joint solutions of two catalogs, one obtained solely from the data of the KB GS RAS permanent network stations and another from a denser seismic network integrated with KISS stations.
